Problems solved by technology

In this way, the terminal for content download or playback must support the download or playback control protocol of the content server. For example, if the content server is an FTP download server and the terminal only supports HTTP download, the terminal cannot download content from the content server.
In a home network, there are many home devices, and the cost of all home devices supporting these control protocols is relatively high
[0004] In addition, the terminals that download and play content must be users authorized by the content server. In a home network, there are many home devices, and the cost of registering all terminals on the content server is relatively high.

Embodiment Construction

[0033] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] like figure 2 Shown is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the content acquisition system of the present invention, including a home terminal and a home server on the home side, and a content server on the network side, and the content server can be a streaming media server, a download server, etc.; inside the home, The message interaction between the home terminal and the home server adopts the internal protocol format; the communication with the outside of the home is in charge of the home server, and the communication between the home server and the content server adopts the protocol commonly used in the industry and supported by the content server. The home server is responsible for two protocol conversion;

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for acquiring content, which comprises that: a home server receives request information of acquiring content from a home terminal including content mark; the home server receives the content from a content server according to the request information; the home server converts the receiving content to a protocol format of home network and sends to the home terminal.The invention also discloses a home server which can achieve the method. The invention just only needs to support transmit and control protocol for acquiring content in the home server, and other terminals in the home network just only need to support transmit and control protocol for acquiring content among the home servers; so the invention reduces the system cost. The home network just only needs to register the home server to user in the content server, and other devices only need the capability of communication with the home servers; so the use cost can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of IPTV and DTV, in particular to a content acquisition method and server. Background technique [0002] At present, the development of the home network has received more and more attention. Downloading and playing online content in the home network has also become an important requirement of the home network. [0003] like figure 1 What is shown is that the terminal in the existing home network downloads the content from the content server through the home gateway. The content can be obtained by "PUSH", that is, the content server actively pushes the content, and the terminal obtains the content; or the content is obtained by "PULL", that is, the terminal actively requests the content server to download the content, and the server receives the request The corresponding content will be issued later. The home gateway plays a transparent role in the process of content transmission. The connection is established betw...
